pickThis Greene was a pretty basic Noir from early in his career.I enjoyed it. I have to say I enjoy all the Littens reviews of all their Christmas themed reads. I‘m such a mood reader, I can‘t seem to plan for seasonal reads ! I got a kick out of the serendipity of there being a Christmas reference towards the end of the book! 🎄🎅🎄Ho ,Ho,Ho!

pickThis was funny and absurd, and yet touching in its way. I enjoyed the ride.
I‘ve never read Graham Green. Picked this one up awhile ago at a used book sale. #CuriousCovers #Gray
